Humphreys v. New York City health and Hospitals Corporation

Filing 92

ORDER: On Monday, October 12, 2020, the Honorable Vernon S. Broderick referred this matter to my docket for settlement. In light of the Courts busy calendar, settlement conferences must generally be scheduled at least six to eight weeks in adva nce. The Court will likely be unable to accommodate last-minute requests for settlement conferences, and the parties should not anticipate that litigation deadlines will be adjourned in response to late requests for settlement conferences. The par ties are directed to contact Courtroom Deputy Rachel Slusher by email at [e-mail] with three (3) mutually convenient dates, to schedule a settlement conference for a time when they believe it would be productive. The p arties should assume that the settlement conference will be conducted by telephone using a platform that will allow the Court to hold confidential conversations with counsel and the party representative(s) for each side. So Ordered. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn on 10/16/2020) (js)

SARAH NETBURN, United States Magistrate Judge:

On Monday, October 12, 2020, the Honorable Vernon S. Broderick referred this matter to
my docket for settlement. In light of the Court’s busy calendar, settlement conferences must
generally be scheduled at least six to eight weeks in advance. The Court will likely be unable to
accommodate last-minute requests for settlement conferences, and the parties should not
anticipate that litigation deadlines will be adjourned in response to late requests for settlement
conferences. The parties are directed to contact Courtroom Deputy Rachel Slusher by email at
[e-mail] with three (3) mutually convenient dates, to schedule a
settlement conference for a time when they believe it would be productive.
The parties should assume that the settlement conference will be conducted by telephone
using a platform that will allow the Court to hold confidential conversations with counsel and the
party representative(s) for each side.
SO ORDERED.
